Cannot connect any device to Google Home

Since changing my home Wi-Fi set up to Unifi I cannot connect cameras or doorbell to Google Home app. Comes up with 'Something went wrong' every time. Nest thermostat connects to the Nest app and is visible in Google Home app so I know the Wi-Fi is good. I've tried countless times with devices next to router and AP's but no luck

Have you tried removing your cameras and doorbell from the Google Home app, doing a factory reset, and THEN reinstalling them?

Figured it out. The factory reset instructions for the cameras and doorbell are wrong. Holding for 5 seconds doesn't factory reset them, it needs to be until the light turns solid yellow

@NickMaz 

Yeah, the 5-second press is just for a "restart"; the "factory reset" is the second set of instructions.
